When you purchase music, are you purchasing a right to music and physical media, or are you merely purchasing a license to play the music? The recording industry says that our dollars only go towards a license. If that's the case, why haven't we been given the opportunity to transfer this license to a new container format? The recording industry appears to be selling us the disadvantages of music and licenses while retaining the benefits for itself.

Ewdison Then writes "IT pros, do you want open-source software (OSS) developer Bruce Perens to lose his house and car? If not, then speak up! Perens believes that IT managers have the clout to make their vendors help protect open-source software and its developers. As an open-source pioneer, Perens wrote the opening salvo in the OSS movement: "The Open Source Definition." He has created and worked on many open-source advocacy teams, including Open Source Initiative, the Linux Standard Base, Software in the Public Interest Inc., and No-Code International. He persuaded Prentice Hall PTR publishers to put out a series of books about open-source technologies, and he serves as series editor. Now it's time for corporate IT managers to put on their evangelical robes, Perens said. In a one-on-one interview with SearchEnterpriseLinux.com, he explained why it's the right time and high time for IT pros to become lobbyists."

Stan Leroy writes "The state of software support for Linux has gotten pretty good?for me, it's gotten good enough that the only Linux-unfriendly application for which I pine is the Launchcast streaming music service I've mentioned in previous columns on Codeweavers Crossover Office and on app interoperability in general. However, my own business computing needs don't stray too far from the core, which OpenOffice, Evolution and Mozilla provide for very well."
